So it looks like I go 3rd Party in November.
Advertisements [?]
This will be my first EVER presidential election and up until today had hopes of casting my FIRST ever vote for Howard Dean. If the rumors are true and he does drop out, I go 3rd party. I can't support Edwards and Kerry knowing that they voted for the Iraq War, PATRIOT ACT, and NCLB.

Flame me all you want, I really don't care. I am ABB, but nowhere does it say I must support the Democrat in that process. I will be voting to kick Bush out of the White House, come hell or high water.

It's a hard day for me, as I'm sure it's a hard day for all Dean supporters. I will NEVER give up the fight Dean started, I will never give in to the establishment.

Since I live in Utah and we can't write in candidates, I've decided to support and vote for Walt Brown in 2004.

I know he wont win. I don't care that he wont win. I want my vote to MEAN something and at least I know I'd be voting my heart, rather than voting for the person the Democrats tell me to.

So yes, in November, I vote 3rd Party and I'll leave that voting place knowing I did my civic duty and that I didn't give in to the lesser of two evils.

Thank you all, and goodnight!
